Meals on Wheels of the Palm Beaches is community supported non-profit that serves the homebound in our community who are unable to shop and cook for themselves. Our volunteers stop by 5 days a week with a freshly prepared and nutritious meal, making over 700 delivery visits each week.

Our clients are seniors, as well as disabled adults and those suffering from chronic and debilitating illness. They are living alone or with a spouse or partner who is also homebound.

We are a meal - and so much more.

Mission Statement

To nourish and enrich the lives of homebound seniors with compassion and love.

Description

MOWPB’s program is designed to address the needs of America’s most vulnerable senior population, the homebound, by delivering a meal and so much more. Our mission is centered on providing three life essentials: (1) nutritious well-balanced meals, (2) a friendly hello and smile to encourage companionship and ease isolation and (3) a watchful eye on the safety and health of our seniors. Our kitchen volunteers plate freshly cooked meals each morning, Monday through Friday. Our delivery volunteers are bringing a smile along with the meals 3 days a week (our COVID-19 schedule). Our three-part platform ensures homebound seniors have access to adequate nutrition, human connection, and emergency medical attention when necessary. All too often, these essentials are lost when homebound seniors live alone. Volunteers are the wheels beneath our meals and keep our program in motion.
